# Homebrew Core
Core formulae for the Homebrew package manager.
## Update Bug
If Homebrew was updated on Aug 10-11th 2016 and `brew update` always says `Already up-to-date.` you need to run:
```bash
cd $(brew --repo); git fetch; git reset --hard origin/master; brew update
```
## How do I install these formulae?
Just `brew install <formula>`. This is the default tap for Homebrew and is installed by default.
## Troubleshooting
First, please run `brew update` (twice) and `brew doctor`.
Second, read the [Troubleshooting Checklist](https://github.com/Homebrew/brew/blob/master/share/doc/homebrew/Troubleshooting.md#troubleshooting).
**If you dont read these it will take us far longer to help you with your problem.**
## Contributing
Read [CONTRIBUTING.md](/.github/CONTRIBUTING.md).
Creating new formulae, updating existing ones, and fixing build issues is easier than you think!
Try `brew edit $FORMULA` and see how you fare.
